I have a few old lemonwood bows but I don't shoot them. I'd rather look at them in one piece.
 Usually old wood bows can be coaxed back into shooting with some easy, positive exercise but I have too many of my own wood bows to worry about and I don't want to mess up these old beauties.   Pat

One of mine is an old York longbow (circa 1940's) and the other is a home made flatbow of unknown origin.   Pat
